Best Looking Bosses in Cuphead

This list is about the amazing designs of the bosses found in Cuphead, rather than the actual bosses themselves.

The Top Ten

1Cala Maria

I found it to be an interesting choice to turn this boss into a big, scary medusa lady. All of the attacks being based on random fish is also cool and a great implementation of the water setting. - kempokid

I love her second phase, again, water characters.

First stage I love

I agree, KK. I agree.

2Phantom Express

In the trailer, this was the fight that made me want to buy the game. I mean, fighting skeletons on a train is too cool to avoid. I found it a nice surprise when I realised that I also had to fight the train, which looks like some weird, demented horse when it runs. - kempokid

3Sally Stageplay

While the actual fight is easy, the different phases and the fact that everything is made to seem as if you are just part of the play make it a unique experience. Also, bonus points for the Kefka reference. - kempokid

I can see a lot of creativity put to good use in this boss fight. It reminds me of a dream I once had.

4Djimmi The Great

This guy is definitely one of the most diverse in terms of look. I found it extremely funny when he came out of the sarcophagus as a weird blob thing, and the puppet phase was very clever. - kempokid

5Dr Kahl's Robot

Everything about the look of this guy screams epic. While nowhere near as weird and wonderful as many other bosses, the sheer awesomeness of this encounter makes me put it so high. - kempokid

Got to love the entirety of the personified homage to the titular Iron Giant itself. That's about enough said. - ModernSpongeBobSucks

That's something else that's really cool about it, I just forgot to mention it - kempokid

6Hilda Berg

I was not expecting this boss to become various zodiac signs. That said, the boss looks bad ass, with various creative forms and eventually a giant clockwork moon, everything comes together quite nicely in this fight. - kempokid

Visually stuning.

HA

7Beppi The Clown

The whole weird jester look he has is really cool. The way he transforms from phase to phase to match what is happening is very creative and works well in the fight - kempokid

8The Devil

When he became a giant head at the end of his first phase, my jaw dropped. His art style looked so different as he became a giant head. The first phase was also interesting to see him turn into various animals. - kempokid

Oh no - ToadF1

9King Dice

10Cagney Carnation

A giant dancing creepy flower, well then. I love how this boss looks, and how they go for the creepy flower approach. The second phase makes him look really cool, as he sets his thorns all across the ground. His death animation surprised me a lot as well, he has no eyeballs. The one thing that I don't like is that I saw a meme of Mr Burns, but his face was replaced by this guy's face, it has been ruined for me forever. - kempokid

One of my favorite level designs, and best music

The Contenders

11Werner Werman

12Grim Matchstick

13Wally Warbles

First of all, you are fighting a bird that lives inside a cuckoo clock, that's automatically funny. The boss then takes it up a notch by introducing this terrifying alien bird thing. The final phase is the one that takes the cake though, as you fight the bird as it is being carried on a stretcher, which is hilarious. - kempokid

And the moment when after you defeat the boss, the two birds carrying him then proceed to cook him up and eat him. Wow, cannibalism in cartoons has never been more grimly humorous. - ModernSpongeBobSucks
